The suspension of disbelief is far too challenging in this attempt at implausible sc-fi noir (?).
Anybody stupid enough to sell 1/2 their brain to any corporation deserves their lot. I dunno if I can keep watching this dud to realize all the intricacies of these BOTTOM LINE STUPID PROTAGONISTS. This is like a means test to the end of who is most like a sheep in a flock of corporate prostitution. The entire premise is flimsy and hastily subtexted. There are plenty who would reign in ell rather than serve in heaven. This depiction is one of the less interesting of the genre. This is like those Missing hbo with Justin (Aniston ex?). Asinine thesis that went nowhere in philosophical dead ends and very soon subsequently cancelled . Even Patricia Arquette can’t save this one.

Thank you. Your review made me want to check it out further to see what you’re going on about. I ended up loving it & getting hooked on the 1st epi. It’s truly brilliant & found myself laughing at the black humor at various points throughout. The acting is just stellar & I was all in from watching the trailer alone. So thank you for your point of view that motivated me to find out for myself if it was worth my time. It very well is worth it.
